mohegen Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 The waiting for the decisions is really killing me! Still waiting to hear some thing (hopefully positive) from DAAD Cairo this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohegen Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Come on DAAD! This is taking way tooooooooooo long! Any one else here waiting for the final decisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimSim79 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Hi mohegen, Its realy taking too long. I'm still waiting too. I'm thinking about emailing the DAAD office but I'm too freaked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shibboleth12 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 So for those of us who've heard already (presumably the US folks), should we be applying for programmes right now? App deadlines for programmes I'm considering are rapidly approaching (15. April[!]). Of course all the info about that will be in the acceptance packet which we get in a few weeks (hopefully). I'm interested in non-degree study and wondering if I still need to submit apps anyway or whether the DAAD greases the bureaucratic wheels on our behalf. However, as Slobodan Milošević once said, "the calendar is ticking." For those of you still waiting (Africa?), I'd suggest emailing DAAD - unless you're on a different timetable than the rest of us, it sure seems awfully late to not have heard a peep from Germany.

Der Kant Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'm wondering where those who have been accepted will be studying next year. I will be in Mainz doing dissertation work for a Ph.D. in philosophy. Also, has anyone had luck finding an apartment yet? Nothing seems to be available for September or October just yet.

Tanner Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I received the study scholarship to do a master's in linguistics, but I'm still trying to decide where I am going to do it. Either in Potsdam or Dusseldorf, it's looking like. If do end up in Potsdam, I won't really have to look for an apartment, since I was in Berlin last year for a period, and I'd be able to rent the same apartment from a friend if I want to, so I guess I'm lucky in that regard. Shibboleth12, I bet you still need to submit an application. Even if the department in which you're studying would be fine with simply admitting you, I imagine that admission still is determined by the central administration of the university. That's how it is at every university I have looked into. So in order to get registered, I think you simply will have to apply to the university itself. I'd be interested to know how much you guys plan on spending for groceries, and where you will be located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Kant Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 This just in: packages are being sent out at the end of this week from Bonn, and therefore might arrive the second week of May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackG Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 This just in: packages are being sent out at the end of this week from Bonn, and therefore might arrive the second week of May. It's true, I received mine yesterday. I was reading the booklet today to get the dirty details on funding, what's included, what's not, and so on. Anyone going to Berlin? I forget (it's been a bit of time since I've been on this board) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brokecollegegrad Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I know this post is old but I applied to the DAAD study scholarship for this upcoming fall Master programs and I was wondering if those who were succesful in recieving this scholarship could share what their general profile was as a student. Were you all amazing and genius? Just trying to figure out what my chances are. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
